as passing a budget is required by law. also there was some comment again about the significance of the 27th amendment, and i would just say quickly a statement from david ripken jr. and lee casey, two constitutional attorneys that served in former administrations who say the bill passes muster. their comment, it does not vary members' compensation, instead holding it in escrow until such time that a budget is passed or congress comes to an end. it's just one other quote, from another constitutional attorney, actually a gentleman who rallied to support to pass the 27th amendment. i will probably point out in 199 it was my state of michigan that put it over the 3/4 threshold. he said, nowhere in such a proposal he said new york where do i see a violation of the terms, such a proposal doesn't vary the amount to congress, it delays disbursement of that dollar amount. at this time i'm honor and privileged to yield two minutes to the gentleman from mississippi, mr. harper a distinguished member of the committee on house administ

s march on washington which spurred passage of the historic civil rights laws. we're honored to have a with us, a colleague, congressman john lewis, who was a speaker at that historic march. [applause] congressman lewis's life represents the courage and sacrifice that makes our nation great. john, please stand and take a bow so we all can recognize you. [applause] behind us, the painting we have chosen for this luncheon is niagra falls, painted in 1856 by ferdinand richard. for me as a new yorker, niagra falls never fails to inspire, tremendous awe of the natural beauty of our great country. then and now, the mighty falls symbolized the grandeur, power and possibilities of america. i want to thank my former senate partner, our great secretary of state hillary clinton, for allowing us to borrow this beautiful painting from the state department collection. but frankly we aren't here for the paintings. we're here for the food. while the theme of today's ceremony is faith in america's future today's menu could be labeled faith in america's food. from the new england

he wants to revamp the gun laws in this country. he hasn't really talked about hollywood and video games. but if so, a guy like david arquette has come forward, basically a comedian, and said, i'm willing to push for a ban or lessening of guns in films. are you? >> you know, it's tricky. i live 20 miles from newtown. my son is in first grade and was in lock down that day with what was going on nearby. and that really affected obviously the whole nation and the whole world and especially i think moms like me would had first graders. this hit really close to home literally. and for me, i think -- i mean, i have mixed views on it. i definitely think that we should have a right to have guns and but i also think there needs to be restrictions so someone can't have 100 round magazine and walk into a school like that. >> alisyn: but what about hollywood? >> i don't think you can censor it. i don't think you can censor what they do. it is a slippery slope t. keeps going. >> steve: what about, for instance, video games, where there should be

we will defend our people and uphold our values through strength of arms and rule of law. we will show the courage to try and resolve our differences with other nations peacefully - not because we are naÏve about the dangers we face, but because engagement can more durably lift suspicion and fear. [applause] america will remain the anchor of strong alliances in every corner of the globe. and we will renew those institutions that extend our capacity to manage crisis abroad, for no one has a greater stake in a peaceful world than its most powerful nation. we will support democracy from asia to africa, from the americas to the middle east, because our interests and our conscience compel us to act on behalf of those who long for freedom. and we must be a source of hope to the poor, the sick, the marginalized, the victims of prejudice - not out of mere charity, but because peace in our time requires the constant advance of those principles that our common creed describes: tolerance and opportunity, human dignity and justice. we, the people, declare today that the most evident

the governor said he doesn't support this law. not enough support this law. in the state of virginia again, president obama narrowly carries it. if you look at it here, it's 7 of 11. mitt romney carried 7 of the 11 and he would have won the majority. if you pull out to the country by congressional district, in all 50 states, mitt romney is the president today. this appears to be dying a little bit. if you did have a change like this, look at it. what would change? democrats would be down campaigning in places like alabama and georgia. any of these voting rights states that have african american districts. we would have a campaign in which republicans would be out campaigning in california. we haven't seen that since the bush campaign in 1988. in the states of pennsylvania and especially new york. if you did this in all 50 states, it would make for a very, very different election. that's not the wolf republicans are talking about. they have a standful of states that would benefit them. that has been a thought after the campaign. >> it's only nebraska and maine
